An off-duty Colorado State Patrol trooper leaped into frigid waters Saturday to save a child who had fallen through the ice on a Greeley pond.
Trooper Dan Haley was with his family at the Greeley Family FunPlex, a recreation center, about 4 p.m. when he saw 10-year-old Brenndan Daviet break through the ice covering a pond near the center, according to a State Patrol news release. The air temperature at the time was in the mid-40s, but the water temperature was near freezing.
When Haley ran out on to the pond to rescue Daviet, the ice beneath him gave way. But Haley managed to reach the boy and pull him to shore, according to the release.
